HORACE'S ODE 7TH BOOK, 4TH.
To his Friend Lucius Mantius Torquatus.
All Things change with Time,
We ought therefore to live chearfully.
The fleecy snows descend in floods away,
Each hill, and dale inrolled are with green,
And groves their blooms, and verdant locks display,
Unnumber'd beauties aids the shining see--
This earth, revolving round the blazing sun,
Makes every season take a different face,
And streams descending from the mountains run,
Less rapid to old ocean's warm embrace.
